WHAT DOES SEA LAVENDER MEAN IN ENGLISH?

sea lavender

Limonium

Limonium is a genus of 120 flower species. Members are also known as Sea Lavender, Statice, or Marsh-rosemary. Limonium is in Plumbaginaceae, the plumbago or leadwort family. Despite their common names, species are not related to the lavenders or to rosemary. The genus has a subcosmopolitan distribution in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and North America. By far the greatest diversity is in the area stretching from Canary Islands east through the Mediterranean region to central Asia; for comparison, North America only has 3 native species. Sea-lavenders normally grow as herbaceous perennial plants, growing 10–70 cm tall from a rhizome; a few are woody shrubs up to 2 m tall. Many species flourish in saline soils, and are therefore common near coasts and in salt marshes, and also on saline, gypsum and alkaline soils in continental interiors. The leaves are simple, entire to lobed, and from 1–30 cm long and 0.5–10 cm broad; most of the leaves are produced in a dense basal rosette, with the flowering stems bearing only small brown scale-leaves.
